Third thread?

"I'm sorry, Mister Cook. You better come down to the station house. Your son is dead."

Cuz it comes before one of the greatest pauses in recorded music history, fifty-six seconds into History of Our World Part 1: Breakbeat & Jungle Ultramix By DJ DB. I can't tell you how many disco bitches (including yours truly) I've heard scream their pearls off in this micro moment.

What he said, pretty much.

I like the claim that if your kid doesn't work 12 hours a day 6 days a week the only possible outcome is a drug-related fatality.

I just had to vote for "bridge club and ladies groups and your daytime programs" though.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Does anybody know what the other song is being sampled in "Mr. Kirk's Nightmare"?

Mr. Snrub, Friday, 29 August 2008 23:47 (seventeen years ago)

"Don't argue with your mother. Just shut up and listen."

Mr. Snrub, Friday, 29 August 2008 23:49 (seventeen years ago)

"Get Into Something" by The Isley Brothers.

Kevin John Bozelka, Saturday, 30 August 2008 00:02 (seventeen years ago)

Also Extra T's: "E.T. Boogie"

Kevin John Bozelka, Saturday, 30 August 2008 00:09 (seventeen years ago)

what the hell is this song? never heard it. who's side is it even on? "If you can't figure that out for yourself, you're stupid" is clearly the dumbest line though (or maybe i'm stupid 'cause i can't figure it out).

If you can't figure that out for yourself, you're stupid.

"The Worst Rock 'n' Roll Records of All Time" has an amusing running commentary on this one.

Fitzcarraldo, Saturday, 30 August 2008 19:00 (seventeen years ago)

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.
